Michigan's Long holds same promise as former Big Ten Rival

If he turns out as good as Joe Thomas, I would say TAKE HIM NOW! And I would be ecstatic about it! But I just don't see it.
 
I like this quote:

"Tackles, usually, historically, are a relatively safe position to take high, so I think it's an attractive position for teams," Carolina Panthers general manager Marty Hurney says. "The guys who were taken high have traditionally done well in this league."

If Jake Long comes out from evaluations with a high grade, there is a great chance that he won't be a bust. This means that by taking Jake Long, we are putting ourselves in a position to take the safest and best prospect on the board. I like that.

Bingo. Safe pick, with an excellent chance of anchoring our line for the next decade, that fills a need. Whats not to like?
